Taylor, Lacy, Berto and now Broner.....

[Dirk Diggler UK]

I mentioned Khan cause he like Broner was called a hype job,which is absolutely ridiculous..Go ahead,keep detracting from one fighter,I can detract from Khan Taylor any fighter really..IMO tho,that's lame..How bout giving fighters their just due..I never said if you did or did not like Broner,tbh that's neither here nor there..What I said is to be fair which you are not doing..Broner is a three div Champion beat/destroyed the number 1 guy at 135lb..

Now I can start saying things about Khan or Taylor to stomp down their careers..I know both of their careers very well..It would be false tho,cause none of them,including Broner is what I would really call a hype job..

Broner does not deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as the other two.

I'm not detracting, I'm stating facts. You claimed Ponce De Leon was a top fighter at the weight Broner beat him - fact is he was clearly not and it's debatable if Broner really won that fight. DeMarco was never no1 at anything.

Broner's resume is ***ing gash compared to Khan's and Taylor's.

Khans best win to date,is Maidana..What if someone called Khan a hype job after he loss to Peterson and Maidana loss to Alexander??It would be foolish even still..Maidana was a good win..The same as De Leon and DeMarco and Paulie M were good wins for Broner..It's really simple tbh,and yes you are detracting..Are you saying De Leon was not in the top 10 of the div when Broner fought him??Oh and DeMarco was clearly ranked num 1 at LW when Broner beat him..

Stops mentioning Taylor and focuses on Khan. Classic!

Focuses on Khan about what tho??Have I said anything negative about him within the post??So what is the problem,he went through something similar to that of Broner..Taylor in reality has a better win on his resume then both of these two..Truth be told they are more compatible to each other(Broner and Khan)then they are to Taylor..

Jermain Taylor's name does not belong in this thread title. If Berto had Jermain's accomplishments he wouldn't have been labeled a hype job.

Not sure why OP didnt use Victor Ortiz as an example, he was supposed to be the new ODLH. Taylor was a legitimate fighter, he just declined rather rapidly.

Not to mention his best win was over Berto,a fighter who clearly belongs on this list..

The difference being Ortiz is a mental midget and Berto was just overhyped. Both of them were still capable of presenting challenges to good fighters in the WW division. Broner got outjabbed by Marcos Maidana, only Lacy is in that category of being exposed imo.

Take off Taylor's name and put in samuel peter



Taylor is much more in league with a chad dawson, and mark breland, when it comes to living up to the hype

[THE REED]

Taylor beat Hopkins, and if you thought he lost he at least fought even with him. That's enough to not be put in with the rest.

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

Jermaine earned respect in his defeats.

[Cuban Linx]

Taylor had a weak chin, but he was very skilled, had a great amateur pedigree, a very nice jab. He accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. He was the undisputed champ at middleweight. Something the others can't say.

He was giving Carl Froch a boxing lesson, until he wilted late in the fight.

One guy you might have to keep an eye on, that may join this list, is Gary Russell Jr.
